Hoddle might not be that bad TBF. Lennon is an unknown quantity. Neither are hugely inspiring choices. Saw Steve McLaren is tipped to be on the short list by the daily fail. Can't see him being a success here. I think whomever comes in next has to be charasmatic as much as likeable. Club badly needs some passion and charisma to help pr with the fans. Obviously performance and tactics on the pitch will be the ultimate decider but it will be hard work for anyone incoming it they don't have the personality or likeability to get fans back onside. The rift is wide

As loki says the kids just don't get the first team chances other than the odd league cup or fa cup tie. Also has to be said that points when we could or maybe should have blooded youngsters he hasn't because we either couldn't afford to gamble when we flirted with relegation or our form was terrible and he wanted to save face, which didn't work last year. We should have blooded youngsters the minute we were safe last year. Pardew should be letting them out on loan but won't because he wants to keep them here in case of an injury crisis. Is that not why you have recalls in loan agreements? Kids need decent level first team football.Yet any time they do get minutes if the team plays badly the youth are always the scapegoats. The whole way we treat youth stinks as bad as our first team coaching.

Ok, amidst the hatred blinkers, a draw away to Swansea isn't the worst result in the world. On their day they are a decent team and play well at home, we can give Swansea a bit more credit than some of the comments written. If we were in the top half and things were going relatively well most people wouldn't blink an eyelid at this result or the performance. Its just exacerbated by the current situation. With that said, it is also nothing to celebrate either given our predicament. This is a team we should still be able to beat and especially given their defensive frailty we should have really pushed to win the game. As it was we were lucky their finishing was wasteful at best, they seemed half arsed and Krul pulled out a couple of great saves. I'm truly gutted having to put up with Pardew likely for at least another month now, if not til after January. Which seems like a real possibility. If he makes it past Christmas he will be given money to spend and then another month after that. Scary. Scarier still there is probably enough guff in the league that we can scrap by and he will be given yet another season.
-
Makes more of an impact than Gouff, Cabella or Obertan. Frustrating how much potential we actually have in our squad ruined by the guff coaching it. As mentioned earlier, I wouldn't be opposed to Aaron's and Sammy either wing. Depending how he settles Cabella behind Cisse. Surely even numnuts has to realize now we should be switching back to 2 up front.
-
To be honest looking at the s*** we have played in Palace, hull, stoke and even swansea looking poor today we have as much chance of nicking enough points to stay up as there is going down, especially with the likes of Burnley and Leicester also looking just as pap. This is arguably a worse case scenario than relegation. We will throw money around in January and scrap through then Pardew will survive again and our transition to perennial mid table and below will be complete and by them most of the mong fans happy now will be rejoicing at our exceeding expectations.
-
Wasted that late opportunity.
-
Still believe with a better manager and coaching staff we would have Aarons and ameobi either side. We have potential at the club but it's constantly under minded and ruined by our cunt of a manager and his dog shit coaching team.
-
Watch this space for more drivel from Pardew about how "we was tellinh him he needs to step up and take his chances as he is running out of chances..on today's form we are happy he's taken my advice and performed well." Or just the fact he was given a chance and put on the pitch may have helped.
-
Weekend absolutely ruined. Great we limp on and might even beat Leicester. The when we realize we have already played all the shit sides and are getting humped by sides that can actually play football we will think about a change again, let's hope it's not too late by then because Pardew is here until December now.
-
Wouldn't surprise me in the least if Pardew did his upmost to get fees agreed for Marv and Hatem before he leaves. Marveaux was always best in the middle, was someone that could always find a telling pass to play someone through or open up a defence. While not strong and not a tackler, he was probably the neatest playing in our squad in possession too. Absolutely criminal all these things Pardew has been able to get away with doing, finally its starting to bite him in his arse.
-
To be fair to any of our team they have all been Pardewed in some way. I don't think colback is a world beater by any means but he has certainly even regressed since joining us and preseason, or as said maybe he really was this terrible all along. Another nice Stat for Pardew regardless --> called up to England squad off Sunderland form and a highly rated, a month later dropped after working with Pardew and our coaching setup for a longer period.
-
He would have to pay compo for hoddle as he is first team coach for QPR, going well lol. Anyway, if £'s are involded its a Non starter.
-
Called up to the next England squad?
-
Looks like a smart decision to let Danny Welbeck go then. Funny he looks half decent when he isn't being played on the wing but through the middle. Was absolutely class tonight, delighted for him, move was just what he needed.
-
Great timing even if it has nothing to do with Pardew. Still looks bad straight after Pardew bigs him up and the importance of keeping him. Well done tiote press team for sticking the knife in.
-
Never getting sacked this week after Ashleys lawyers comments. Next week maybe.. Come on Swansea.
-
Big exhale from Ashley.. seems likely he is thinking "ffs that hasn't made things easier for me here." Can't see him sacking him until after Swansea at the earliest. Shame yet another chance for the shit charlatan. Come on the Swansea. Feels like the Souness saga again, how many bloody chances does he get? Need some fan heckling Ashley leaving the ground action like Shepherd at Wigan.
-
Will scrape a win off Steven Taylors arse. Fist pump fury from Saylor and Pards.
-
Not suited to the premier league, player said so himself. Get over it people.
-
This is messed up. No let even really a funny joke. Seemed to go further than necessary for a sarcastic joke even if he was on a wind up. If he was he has done that knowing this is more aggravation for fans and treating us like cunts again. He won't sack him if we lose against stoke imo, might if we then lose to swansea.

Youth Players Pardew has said have bright futures Youth Players living up to potential Vuckic Bigi Streete Dummett Good Campbell Armstrong Sammy Ameobi Richardson It is become a cycle.. last year it was Bigi, Campbell, Ameobi and Streete... now they are forgotten because its Armstrong, Satka and Aarons time. To be fair, Dummett has seen plenty of minutes and Aarons looks good in the glimpses we have seen. I just don't thing any of the others have been given the opportunity here or to go away and learn their craft. Instead they are forgotten and likely released come the end of the season. I am not saying all of those players could have made it under another coach to, I am sure they would have fared better though. It is the way Pardew bigs them up just to drop them cold that pisses me off.

Not least with the inept coaching set up and lack of chances to play for the first team or be allowed to elsewhere. More complete bollocks about the being from the North, to help his case being a cockney in Newcastle too. Unaware it actually contradicts, if anything fans should give him an easier ride because he is local. Either way I guess the message is Newcastle Fans are too demanding and unrealistic.
